full test % vs. blocks left

[mike74]

My client shows that I have completed 42 blocks. It also says that my full test is 20% complete but it shows 1584 block left in test! Does this mean my future blocks will be smaller than the ones I have done? 42 is a lot less than 20% of 1584.

If you ever restart, the block count starts over. So you did do more that 42 blocks, but only 42 since you restarted the client. Somebody else may answer better?

Thanks czmat. I think that's exactly what happened. I restarted my computer and had to make the registry changes to get back to my original test. This must have caused my "blks done" to reset.

Double check to make sure this only happens with the registry change.
Stop reboot and see if your blocks reset.

This could be a very important issue. It's been a while since I've done prp.

I restarted again and "blks done" went back to zero again. The % of full test is correct, though, and so is blocks left (now 1563).

Good and thanks, I was worried that the registry change wasn't functioning correctly with version 2.3
